ok, well in this area of Washington, few places even sell #9 shot, 95% of sporting or target loads sold are 7 1/2 or 8

If your clay target experience has been at Kenmore or Granite Falls, or any other club that doesn't have a Skeet field, I'm not surprised they don't use/sell #9s. If you want to try some Skeet, my friend,

pattern your shotgun with both, in mine 7 1/2 has better patterns, at least with the ammo i use.

Sounds right to me.

If you were evaluating a field round for 40-yard performance I'd concur. But, with target ammo patterning needs to be done with the appropriate choke at the anticipated target distance. Next time you're patterning, try some #9s with a Skeet choke at about 25-yards.
